Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Emsa Perfect Beaker Measuring Beaker
Customer Review: If you watch Good Eats, you already know...
Summary: 5 Stars
And if you don't you should try it. It makes measuring so much easier than traditional cups. And there's a lid too!Customer Review: Really the perfect beaker!
Summary: 5 Stars
I owned one of these for about 10 years before I dropped it and it broke. I was very happy to find this and I bought two! There are never any drips when pouring wet ingredients from this measuring cup. I use it all the time and would recommend it highly!Customer Review: This is just cool
Summary: 5 Stars
I got this after seeing it over and over on Good Eats. Now that I have it, I pick this over the standard Pyrex measuing cup every time. First, I like the plastic construction. It doesn't have the heft of thick borosilicate glass, and I wouldn't microwave stuff in it, but I'm also not worried about breaking or chipping it. Second, the upside-down cone is easier to hold steady when it's full of liquid than a heavy glass cup with the handle off to the side. I spill enough in the kitchen already, so anything that helps me be neater is a plus. Third, I love the different scales for different measures (cups, oz, tablespoons, metric, etc.). If I have multiple things to meaure in, I can just pour them in and read the scales instead of using extra measuring spoons and cups.
I would like to have another version of this in borosilicate glass for when I want to microwave in it, but I can use the Pyrex for that. I also haven't tried putting acidic liquids in in much, so I don't know how the plastic holds up to that. So far I'm really liking this measuring beaker though.
Customer Review: My favorite measuring cup
Summary: 4 Stars
This is the measuring cup I reach for first for all but very hot liquids. (I'm afraid hot water could damage it.) I am not sure why, but it seems much easier to measure liquid with this design. I guess this is why the scientific world adopted the beaker shape.Customer Review: Nice design
Summary: 5 Stars
Nice design, well balanced and easy to read. Haven't found a use for the lid, but it fits tight and would probably work well for mixing (shaking) or storage.
